Half of the forum is doing this; if you act like this, don't complain later that your posts will be deleted; you will be marked as a spammer, and eventually, you will start getting temporary bans step by step, which will eventually lead to a permanent ban.
Ask yourself, "Do you like to chew what a cow spits out?" To make it more straightforward. Cows are ruminants, and they periodically spit out their food and chew again. It is with this that all answers in some branches can be compared when users paraphrase the answers of others and pass them off as their own.
Probably a slight exaggeration, but you've obviously found a lot of the users that were abusing this technique, it's a difficult one to moderate because unless it's reported or even obvious to the reporters it often goes unnoticed by the moderators as well as the users themselves. Unless, it's written in a specific way, it can be quite difficult to ping. Especially, when they're only quoting a certain amount of the original source, as it appears less official that way, and doesn't get he alarm bells ringing.

Although, I do think most users sooner, rather than later get punished for plagiarism, it just takes time. I will say though, we appreciate your efforts in reporting those that do plagiarism, it helps clear up the forum massively.
